"Andrew Robinson and Paul Wilkinson have left no stone unturned in Israel Betrayed. Their shocking exposé of the tragic results of anti-Semitic replacement theology is indicting, convicting, and challenging." Dr. Ed Hindson, Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA
"Israel Betrayed clearly labels individuals responsible for replacement theology and also shows what the Bible actually teaches about these matters. This work is highly recommended." Dr. Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum, Ariel Ministries, San Antonio, TX
"The research in this book is thorough and up-to-date, the arguments are compelling, and the numerous illustrations are interesting and relevant. Never has such a work been more needed than today." Dr. Mark Hitchcock, Dallas Theological Seminary, Dallas, TX
"Andrew Robinson and Paul Wilkinson have produced one of the most important books relating to the rise and development of the modern State of Israel." Dr. Thomas Ice, Pre-Trib Research Center, Kansas City, MO
"It would be presumptuous for any researchers and writers to attempt to survey, much less correct, the vast history of belief and tradition that has formed the interpretive ideas concerning Israel and the church, but that is precisely what the late pastor Andrew Robinson and historical scholar Paul Wilkinson have successfully done." Dr. Randall Price, Rawlings School of Divinity, Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA
The book is a tour de force that must be reckoned with by those who claim to be Christians while despising the Jewish people and the modern State of Israel. Dr. David R. Reagan, Lamb & Lion Ministries, Dallas, TX
This book will not only help restore to your thinking Israel's rightful place, but it will also equip you to teach this important truth to others. This work receives my highest recommendation. Dr. Andy Woods, Chafer Theological Seminary, Albuquerque, NM
Israel: The Inheritance of God
by: Paul R. Wilkinson
Israel: The Inheritance of God sheds light on the reasons behind God's choice of Israel as His people. When studying these reasons, one has to dig deep into the Scriptures. The picture that emerges is of a God whose connection to Israel is unbroken because of His own nature and character. Since He put His name on Israel and thus made the people His possession, He must fulfill the promises He made to Israel. The focus shifts from Israel to the God of Israel, and the reader cannot help but walk away with a deeper adoration for this God. The book is thorough and scholarly yet also devotional in tone.

Israel Betrayed - Volume 2: The rise of Christian Palestinianism
by: Paul R. Wilkinson
Published in two volumes Israel Betrayed is a tour de force in defense of God's eternal promises to the Jewish people. For two millennia, theologians and clergymen alike have claimed that the church has replaced Israel in the purposes of God. In volume 1, Andrew Robinson comprehensively surveyed the history of this theology. In volume 2, Paul Wilkinson charts and examines the rise of pro-Palestinianism in the church, showing how its proponents have internalized replacement theology and aligned themselves with Rome and Islam in their opposition to Israel.

Speaking for the American scene, I have observed the rise in anti-Semitism, sometimes disguised as anti-Zionism; the increase in anti-Semitic websites, which have revived old-world conspiracy theories; the denial of the Holocaust, with some people even finding a way to blame the Jews for the Shoah; and universities all across the United States demonstrating against the State of Israel. There has also been a massive spread of replacement theology (which I call "theological anti-Semitism") in many churches that were once strongly dispensational, and many Bible colleges and seminaries that once were clearly dispensational and pro-Israel have also been infested. For these reasons, I was delighted to read Israel Betrayed and decided that Ariel Ministries should publish this important work.
The first volume written by Andrew D. Robinson deals with the history of replacement theology. For decades, I have strongly felt that the rise of replacement theology—which later led to covenant theology (Calvinistic replacementism) and Lutheranism (Arminian replacementism)—was not derived by an honest exegesis of the biblical text but was built on the foundations of anti-Semitism. I have seen this truth in scattered references but did not have the time to gather all the evidence. I have often encouraged seminary students, who were looking for topics for their dissertations, to pursue it, but none ever did. Pastor Robinson has accomplished this task, and I will be forever grateful for his contribution to the body of the Messiah. He was promoted to heaven not long after he put his work together, and we can praise the Lord that Andrew left us such an important and valuable work.
Robinson's research begins with the early church fathers and moves through history to the present, quoting what leaders of the church have said about the Jews. His findings show that anti-Semitism was and is not limited to Roman Catholicism, but includes the Eastern Orthodox Church and the leaders of the Protestant Reformation. Augustine, whose influence moved the church from pre-millennialism to amillennialism, derived his theology from his anti-Semitism, which could not permit a future kingdom with Israel's restoration. Therefore, I call replacement theology "theological anti-Semitism."
Robinson, thus, provides an excellent historical background to the second volume of Israel Betrayed, entitled The Rise of Christian Palestinianism. Authored by Paul R. Wilkinson (who served as Andrew's associate at Hazel Grove Full Gospel Church), the book deals with the rise of pro-Palestinianism in modern church history. We learn that Christian Palestinianism is not limited to the liberal wing of the church but extends even to the evangelical side. More and more church leaders have become clearly anti-Semitic while claiming to be "only" anti-Israel. Their anti-Israelism has moved them to support Islam and even hugging Muslim terrorists who are devoted to Israel's destruction. How quickly have such church leaders forgotten the common Islamic program: First, we kill the Saturday people, and then we come for the Sunday people!
The supporters of Christian Palestinianism have imbibed replacement theology, which led to theological anti-Semitism, and now align themselves with Islam in their animosity against the Jews. To understand replacement theology is to understand the rise of Christian Palestinianism—hence, the union of the two volumes of Israel Betrayed.
The book is long but well worth the effort to read. It prepares the believer for the spiritual battle that is fought over Israel and the Jewish people.
